Does an apparently good-looking face, very dark brown hair, blue eyes, 5’11" and well-built physique count? (I know, I was gutted I didn't reach 6'2", my British grandma was too, saying I could never join the Irish Guards, but then, like the Scots Guards they’ve ridiculously abandoned the wearing of kilts even in dress uniform (apart from the Pipes and Drums), and coming from Republican rebels on my mother’s side I’m sure that wouldn’t have gone down well! :P).
